Little sleep
The breath of an angel
O sweet sleep
A light breath
Little sleep
The breath of an angel
O sweet sleep
A breath has passed

Little sleep
The breath of an angel
O sweet sleep
A light breath
Little sleep
The breath of an angel
O sweet sleep
A breath has passed

It has passed
The breath of an angel
It has given sleep
To closed eyes
It has passed
The breath of an angel
It has given rest
To this baby

It has passed
The breath of an angel
It has given sleep
To closed eyes
